Appearance: hazy copper with a persistent tan head; a gorgeous beer served at 50 degreesAroma: big, bright floral and citrus hops me want to drink instead of write these damned notes; alcohol, biscuit and tiny bit of caramel sneak in, tooFlavor: alcohol and hops; solid malt balance; tastes like a big British (bread and biscuit) as opposed to American (caramel) red; the comes all the way through, but the complexity is tantalizingBody: medium bodied with a surprising (given all the malt in here) dry, but long finishDrinkability: the medium body and amazing malt complexity kept me drinking; the hops made me want a second, the alcohol made me re-think a thirdSummary: Awesome. Period. Imperial Red. Strong Ale. Imperial Scotch. Old Ale. Call it whatever you want, I loved it. This beer will hold up really well for aging and it will be a great one to revisit year after year. An instant classic.

I didn’t get to try the Dank but I tried the Pumpkin beer and it reminded me of that spoiled porter beer from New Glarus. I didn’t like it, you could say it was O’so Bad. So I went to the store to return it and they said that they had got a lot of returns on that beer. I am wondering if that “Dank” will is gonna stank…..

As for the pumpkin - I thought it was a very very good beer. better at a warmer temp (55+) that brought the smoke, spice, funk, and maltiness into balance. with a chill on it was incredibly harsh and sharp tasting. The Dank is nothing like it; except that I like it just as much.

fwiw: the old english porter from new glarus is not spoiled; it tastes as they wanted it to, and quite a few people like it. If it's not your preference that's fine, but please don't call it something it isn't.

Over the fall as we winterizing the cabin, I picked up some of that Pumpkin beer from OSO. And like the other previous anonymous said it was spoiled. I also returned it to the store and the manager said most had been returned. After that I am really scared to drink OSO. Whenever we get up there we opt for Central Waters, Point or other Wisconsin micros.
